agree. i mean, most people post meaningful stuff, but then there's also a large majority of absolutely nothing that people just post to whore up their post count a bit.

so what? If people want to post stupid junk just to get their post counts up so be it, most people on NS can pick out the junk from the good stuff.

actually im pretty sure that guy just wants to post a lot to try to annoy other members. he'll be gone after a while and he probably has a different account that he makes most of his posts on

Post count must stay. I would still post equal amount and post in equal amount of threads.

I was kind of concerned in the beginning, but after you pass 1000 posts, and you get to know people, and your name gets out there, it doesn't matter how many posts you have. I think we could do away with it, because people with many posts are already established as "veterans," and maybe newbies would go for quality over quantity.

i use post count as a credibility meter. The higher the post count the more credible*. It also depends on reputation, recognizablity, age, and time spent on the site.
